San Anselmo council OKs $10K donation for Imagination Park

The San Anselmo Town Council has approved a $10,000 donation to the San Anselmo Community Foundation to help underwrite creation of Imagination Park, the town's new downtown park that will house bronze statues of the George Lucas characters Indiana Jones and Yoda.

So far the San Anselmo Community Foundation has raised about $105,000 of the $300,000 it hopes to raise to cover the costs of creating and maintaining the park. Filmmaker Lucas, a San Anselmo resident, donated the land for the park and razed a building to make room for it.

Officials have scheduled an unveiling of the statues for 5 p.m. Thursday.
